Stacey’s Reviews > The Speckled People: A Memoir of a Half-Irish Childhood > Status Update

I'm uncertain if the author intended to write his story in the view/voice of his childhood self. If he did, I think it's genius. There is something inviting and accepting of a child's innocent, naive perspective. It allows the reader to have more compassion in a way. Very interested to see where the rest of his story goes - I just need to keep my eyes open longer than getting in 10 pages of reading each sleepy night
